Professionals seeking secure and private communication for sensitive information can now rely on Snapmail, a messaging service that integrates seamlessly with Gmail to enable ephemeral emailing. Snapmail is a Chrome extension developed by Workday, a renowned provider of cloud-based human resources and financial management software. This innovative tool allows users to send and receive text, pictures, videos, and documents that automatically delete after a short time, typically 60 seconds, ensuring a more private and short-term way to communicate.

Key Features

Snapmail uses AES encryption to secure emails stored on its servers. When sending an email, a unique encryption key is generated in the browser and sent to the recipient, ensuring that Snapmail itself cannot access the content of the messages.

Security and Privacy

The service is designed with security in mind, using end-to-end encryption to protect user data. The encryption key is generated client-side and not stored on Snapmail's servers, enhancing privacy.

Usage

To use Snapmail, users need to install the Chrome extension and have a Gmail account. The extension adds a 'Snapmail' button to the Gmail compose interface, allowing users to send self-destructing emails. Recipients can view these emails without needing the extension installed, but the email content will self-destruct after 60 seconds.
